He writes: "The single most important thing this film is going to accomplish is to show the world that the Hawaiian people had a real culture, real history, and undo a lot of damage this tiki-bar culture has done over the years."

I think you meant "Potshot" not "Pop shot". See definitions below:

Potshot: A critical remark made in a random or sporadic manner.

Pop Shot:

  1. A quickly aimed or haphazard shot with a firearm.

  2. A slang term used to describe a person ejaculating (in film or video, or image in a pornographic magazine), usually onto a person or object.

The latter is pretty funny to visualize in the context of the original post. :)
